OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Mina Fazel is Professor of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Oxford and consultant child and adolescent psychiatrist at the Oxford Children’s Hospital. Her research focuses on improving mental health support for vulnerable and hard-to-reach populations, with a particular interest in school-based supports as well as refugee mental health. She leads the OxWell Student Survey, one of the largest school-based mental health surveys in the UK, which has collected responses from over 100,000 students. She will be sharing recent research and insights from this work, carried out with a committed team of researchers working closely with practitioners and policy-makers, all dedicated to understanding the mental health needs of young people, their help-seeking behaviours, and service preferences.
